From MPD:

“On 10/27/19 at approximately 10:00 p.m., officers from the First District responded to the 200 block of 2nd Street NW for a report of a man in the street threatening people with a gun. On the scene, officers located a small group of people who reported that during an argument, a male suspect pulled out a gun, struck one victim and threatened to shoot the other victims.

MPD and United States Capitol Police coordinated a canvass of the area and stopped the suspect without incident. A further intensive search of the area located the handgun where the suspect had hidden it following the offense. The male suspect was placed under arrest for Assault with a Dangerous Weapon. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries as a result of this incident.”
